🇫🇷 FPF - France Poker Festival ✍️ LIVE BLOG

We’re here at King’s Resort 🇨🇿♠️🔥 ready to bring you another great event organized by EuroRounders and Texas Poker 🎯 We’re talking about the France Poker Festival Main Event, featuring a massive €1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool and a €290 buy-in 💰

With the first three flights already in the books, it’s time to dive into the action from Europe’s biggest poker room, starting with Day 1D Speed kicking off on Thursday at 6 PM with 30-minute levels 👀 Are you ready for another adventure to follow with us? ▶️🔥

Thu 19 May - 23:10 - New break and last chance to get in!

New break here at Day 1D Speed of the France Poker Festival Main Event 🇫🇷♠️🔥 as Level 9 comes to an end — the final level available for late registration.

Registration and re-entry remain open throughout the break ⏱️ before play resumes at blinds 1,500/3,000 with a 3,000 ante.

The field has now climbed to 173 entries, with numbers still expected to rise during the final 20 minutes of late registration 💰👀 A total of 63 players remain seated, while the average stack has reached 109,000 chips compared to the 50,000 starting stack.

The tables are packed with action and several familiar faces from the King’s scene are in the field. Among them Romanian regular Musa, also a EuroRounders trophy winner, the ever-present Nicky Prena, Francesco Arò — now practically relocated to King’s over the last few months with solid results — plus Stefano Berrettoni and Federico Donnini.

We also had a chance to interview Federico earlier today 🎥 and invite you to check out the interview on our Instagram page.

Next update coming once the field gets even shorter. As a reminder, play ends once only 10% of the field remains — which currently means just 18 players left standing 🎯 Stay tuned 👀🔥

Thu 19 May - 21:40 - Level n°7 underway, 150 entries and counting...

Play has resumed here at King’s Resort 🇨🇿♠️🔥 as players return from the 40-minute dinner break and jump back into Day 1D Speed of the France Poker Festival. The field has now reached 152 entries, with 89 players still seated 💰👀 Blinds are currently 600/1,200 with a 1,200 ante.

There are still three levels left to enter or re-enter the tournament, including the current level that has just begun ⏱️ Late registration remains open before the tournament pushes toward its final stages.

Play will continue until only 10% of the field remains, while the money is set at 15%, guaranteeing a €600 payout against the €290 buy-in 🎯 No side events or additional flights are scheduled tonight, meaning all eyes are on the Main Event action 👀🔥 Also worth remembering: the chip leader of the flight will earn a package for the next anniversary edition at King’s Resort 🏆

Thu 19 May - 20:00 - Dinner break with over 110 entries!

First break of the day here at Day 1D Speed of the France Poker Festival at King’s Resort 🇨🇿♠️🔥

A total of 113 entries have already been recorded, with 85 players currently battling at the tables 💰👀 Blinds are now 300/600 with a 600 ante, and players are approaching what is actually the longest pause of the day: the 40-minute dinner break 🍽️⏱️

Action will resume afterwards and continue deep into the night. The next level will be 400/800, while the average stack remains very close to the starting point, as only the opening levels have been completed so far.

Several familiar faces from the King’s scene are already in the field, including Romanian regular Stefan Druska, still the only player to have won two EuroRounders trophies 🏆🏆

Alongside him are many other recognisable names we’ll be following throughout the day, both in the photo gallery and in the updates from our live blog 🎯📸
